A James Bond for gays to love?

...Speaking of the new James Bond (see previous post), some die-hard Bond fans have been critical of the casting of Daniel Craig as the secret agent, following in the footsteps of Pierce Brosnan, Sean Connery and Roger Moore, among others.

But one thing fans, gay and straight alike, won't be complaining about is Craig's attitude toward appearing in the buff: "In today's world we expect female actresses to go naked so why not men? I have told bosses I'm prepared to do a full frontal scene. I'm not shy and Bond wouldn't be shy about it either," Craig tells the UK's "Daily Mirror."

Craig, so good in a series of diverse roles including last year's 'Munich," is aware that his newest role has made him into something of a sex symbol to gay men.

"I was out recently and all these gay guys were over me like a rash," he says. "But they never ask about the Bond plot."
